THE SUPREME COURT AND TIE CHINESE

THE SUPREME COURT AND TIE CHINESE
II is more difficult than usual to follow the
reasoning of the majority Of the United States
Supreme Court in regard TO the Federal stat.
utcs supposed hitherto TO provide some means
Of protecting Chinese aliens against abuse.
The court seems, TO the lay intelligence TO
make distinction not involving an apprccablc
difference. 1t is held. in the Baldwin case
that -Lhe force used by the defendant I'm
driving Chinese out Of California yillage)
was cXertcd against the Chinese people and
not against the Government in its efforts To
protect them. His conspiracy was to ill-tirat
the Chinese and not TO hinder or delay the
United States in the execution of any measures
to prevent such ill-trcament." The question
seems TO be raised here whether il is possible
TO violate a law without in effect proceeding
against the authority which made the law.
The United States make law for the protcc.
ton of aliens, or Chinese aliens in particular.
Somebody does violence TO the people sought
10 DC protected by ulat law. Is it possible that
such action does not involve procedure against
the United States Suppose A. beats or other
wise Injuries BIS horse or dog. Can il be
maintained that BIS rights are not touched. and
that A. has only proceeded against The animal
This appears TO be the line of reasoning
followed by the court, and it certainly is a
peculiar line. Justice Field evidently thinks
so, for he has handed in a minority opinion
which though Of no effect upon the case. VET
seems to be more in harmony with the ordinary
mode of Interpretation tlan the decision of
thc majority. Justice Field is of the opinion
that forciblc deprivation Of rights secured
w treaty TO the subjects or citizens of any
nation is prevention by force OF the execu.
ton Of law Of the United States >; and he
adds, with what appears considerable force
If this is not So then there is 10 law of the
United States which can be invoked for the
protection of the subjects of China. notwith

country; and the same rule must apply with

track is 100 feet above the ground. This Is
nothing more nor less than an immense elevator
with four lifts to carry passengers to and from
the platform. Something Of the kind has De-
como q matter of necessity if that neighbor-
hood is to be settled, because railroad stanoh
100 feet up in the air is practically inaccessible
to women and children, and not attractive even
to men. AT present the elevated roads have so
much traffic that they do not miss the people
who dislike to 90 up and down stairs but when
the underground railway becomes fact. that
company which puts its patrons to the least
trouble in climbing heavenward will be the
most popular, and probably pay the biggest
dividends. About that time we may look for
elevators at every station if those at One-
hundred and-sixteenth st. work well

TIE WORLD md TIE CONSTTTUTION1L
CONTENTION

l"Thc Ncw-York World " has been thrown
into state of mind by the proposition to hold
| the Constitutional Convention next year instead
of dis. 1t begins an article on the subject in
this ridiculous way:
When General Grant said that " this Is Government
where will of the people the law OF the land" he
had not seen Republican Legislature of NewYork pre-
pairing disregard that expressed will by denying
Constitutional Convention which tho people with The
emphasis OF half million majority. have decreed
should be held.
Now there Is no foundation in fact for this
heated indictment. 1t is not true that the Re
publicans in the Legislature are preparing 10
disregard the popular will by declining TO ar
range for the holding Of a Constitutional Con
vcntion. But it is true, il The World >
please, that its distinguished Democratic brother
Governor David b. Hill stands ready " defeat
the popular will in this very particular with his
veto If Constitutional Convention is not
held. the Chief Executive (Dcm.) Of the State
and not the Legislature (Rcp) Will lie 10 blame.
The Governor announced with sufficient plain
ness in his last stump spccch-the one he de-
liycIcd at that unfortunate Brooklyn Club din
her that be would withhold his signature from
a convention bill corresponding 10 the one
which seems TO have commended itself TO the
majority Of tho Senators and Asscmblymcn.
That Governor Hill is capable of beating
down the popular will with his veto everybody
knows who is familiar with his autocratic course
on the Census bill There is a Constitutional
mandate providing for taking tho ccnsns once
every ten years The Republican Legislature
of 1855, Of course, respected that mandate by
passing the necessary Census bull but the
Governor on partisan grounds vetoed it. and
the census was not taken. The fate Of the
Census bill possibly is to be the fate of the
Convention bill. a Governor capable Of bring
ing a Constitutional mandate to naught doubt
less is also capable Of denying Constitu-
tional Convention which the people, with the
emphasis of over half million majority, have
dcclced should be held"
The next time The World " starts 10 write
an editorial on Overriding the People, 1t will
do well TO see If it is not trcading heavily on
The tees Of a Democratic Governor.

A Republican Legislature sits in the Capitol
at Albany, but the building itself is as much a
Democratic machine D today as 1t ever was.
To be sure, the machine is not running, for the
Republicans are not convinced that it is their
duty to vote a million dollars to be spent in
finding employment for 1000 Democrats who
in consideration for work, would support at the
polls any candidates recommended to them by
the Democratic bosses" of Albany. The bill
introduced in the Assembly yesterday has few
chances, therefore, of becoming law until some
clause is inserted in ii which will effcctually
prevent the money from being expended in aid
of Demo ratio politics.

The protest of the English Society of Au-
thors against the greed of publishers promises
to be OF some effect. 1t was entirely just, for
the man who writes book ought to be the
man to profit most from it, financially. We do
not imagine that the sweet rcasOnabeness of
this proposition appealed greatly to fhe con-
sciences of English publishers. Possibly they
thought some enterpnsing book-writers might
start cooperative printing shop, print their
own books and thus leave the present middle
men nowhere so far as profits are concerned.
But the motive doesn't matter. II is an i'm
portant point gained that one well-known firm
of London publishers has practically offered to
let disinterested persons audit its accounts to
see that no undue Advantage is taken of the
authors of its being Tins nicely started, the
reform will hardly stop there.
The Senate discussed high license yesterday,
having under consideration the Vedder bill TO
tax sales of liquor. 1t is evident that this
measure, whatever its merits. will rouse much
opposition and that if an attempt should be
made to substitute it for the Assembly bill. the
liquor dealers chances of defeating all high
license legislation this year would be improved.
Herein lies sufficient reason why the Repub-
Icans in both houses should stick TO the AS
scmbly bill There are no politics in that. as
Is charged against the Vcdder bill. 1t is a
measure of philanthropy. good morals and tcm-
perancc. Let it go through promptly. now,
before the new liquor lobby can mature plots
to defeat it, The way the Speaker turned part
OF that lobby out of the Assembly Chamber
yesterday will not prevent them from working
outside.
